The 7.3.5 PTR has major changes to the leveling experience. Blizzard is looking for players to help test the changes to provide the best possible experience in 7.3.5! Here are their instructions on how to create a PTR account and leave feedback.\r\rIf you would like to learn more about the leveling changes, check out our Dynamic Zone Scaling and Leveling Changes on the 7.3.5 PTR - Experience, Heirlooms, Mob Health Pools, Flying posts.\r\rLearn more about 7.3.5 in the Patch 7.3.5 Content Hub.\r\r\rWe need your help! Create a new character on the Public Test Realm (PTR), level as far as you can, and send us your detailed feedback. By leveling through the content and sharing your thoughts with us, you will have a direct impact on improving the new dynamic leveling experience.\rWe Need You!\r\r What You Want: To help make World of Warcraft a satisfying and seamless world to level through.\r What We Want: Your feedback\u2014the good, the bad, and the ugly\u2014so we can iron out the wrinkles.\r How We Do This: Create a new character on the PTR, level up as far as you can, and send us your considered, original opinion on the overhauled leveling experience.\r\rThe Big AskAs you may have heard, we are significantly overhauling the leveling experience in World of Warcraft to make life more interesting for all the lower-level characters out there. Leveling zones from 1\u2013100 will dynamically scale to your character\u2019s level for a certain range, so you can spend longer in the places you love and experience more of your favorite quest lines and stories as you travel through Azeroth.This is where you come in. On the 7.3.5 PTR, we want you to level a character, then give us your detailed, original feedback on the changes: zones, dungeons, quests, and the entire end-to-end experience in the zones you love and at the pace you enjoy. Share your thoughts on the experience, warts and all, and give us valuable insight that will change the game for the better.\rJust the Facts\r\r You will need to access the PTR build for Patch 7.3.5 (see below on how to do just that).\r Level up over the course of the 7.3.5 PTR and provide detailed feedback on the experience. Examples could include: \r \r Specific zones you played, and what level you were when arriving and moving on\r Pick a leveling range to tell us about\r Tell us which zones you chose and why, and what dungeons you completed\r Your thoughts on the difficulty, pacing (including any specific quests or areas you had trouble with), and rewards\r You can also let us know about any bugs you find: big, small, and downright squishy\r \r We would also like to know: \r \r Class\r Specialization\r The bug was annoying\u201d is nowhere near as helpful as \u201cWhen I arrived in Hellfire Peninsula at level 58 the quests were grayed out.\u201d\r (In other words: the more detail you give us, the better you will help us make the game!)\r \r\rHow to Create a PTR Account:\r\r Log in to Blizzard Account Management.\r Select your World of Warcraft account.\r Select Additional Services, then click Public Test Realm.\r Click History\/Status to create your PTR account.\r\rPlanning AheadBe sure to log in to your Blizzard account and select the Public Test Realm (PTR) in Game Accounts.\r\r Download the PTR client from within the Blizzard Battle.net desktop app.\r Log in to any of the available Test Servers.\r Create a new level 1 character.\r\rForgive Us Our MaintenanceChampions take note! We plan to leave the PTR up throughout the holidays, but as with any test phase there may be short periods of downtime to apply changes, perform maintenance, and other trickier things that pop up. If the PTR isn\u2019t available for any length of time, please know we appreciate your patience, good humor, and participation. We are working hard behind the scenes to keep everything on an even keel.\rWhere to Send FeedbackDynamic Leveling Feedback: 7.3.5 PTR forum Bug squishing: 7.3.5 PTR bug forum Thank you, we truly appreciate the feedback you give and look forward to all you have to share with us. See you in Azeroth!

Might actually be tempted to level a toon on PTR to help test this.

Switch to EU, log in, log out, exit, log in America, (Or reverse if you're EU), exit, reopen the client and it will show, worked for me!

Will players who just play the PTR without giving any input get their access removed? Sounds like this time round the want players to actually DO some testing rather than getting early access for the sake of it...

Hello Blizzards, your Very Laggy Beta tester here. Per your request i had went to update my PTR and will be providing you with extensive insight from my own side, and offer my piece of mind! Cannot wait to test the new system, i mean... The WoD and Legion were not alt friendly... \rLet us make the BfA alts friendlier!

Sounds like this time round the want players to actually DO some testing rather than getting early access for the sake of it...\r\rnow that would be interesting! I would love to see something along those lines myself... However than we get to the problem of people testing the new things in couples, and one of the couple beeing a person with meagre knowledge of english, or just plainly not feeling like giving a report.\r\rIt is hard to look who does and who doesnt provide a feedback however, i am sure... Perhaps an ingame form of leaving a feedback? As in, when finishing half a quest chain, a quest window pops out, but when clicking it, a 500 words limited window opens? If anything, even a short review sometimes can make a change if there is plenty of these issues beeing adressed about same things, even if on short word.

I have a clear idea of what I want to say but I guess I should level a character first to give validity to what I'm saying.

I wish Blizzard paid for the PTR and beta testing... like this is work and instead, we are paying them like our sub time keep counting down. I understand we all want to have a great game but remember Blizzard does profit of your guy's labor, for finding those bugs and reporting and doing focus testing for them, making their PRODUCT better! When I create any kind of app and ask people to test it, they expect to get paid like that is how software development works (for none games)!

Yep, my thoughts exactly. When I saw there's a blue 'instructional' post on the matter I thought there is finally something in it (not necessarily money, just... 'something'), and now I'm like 'meh, i'm not gonna be your sucker'. Stupid exploitative entertainment industry.

Well, at least with the unpaid PTR, it doesn't come with any responsibility to actually accomplish anything. I guess that's something?\r\rI imagine they do have people they pay to do this, with more rigorous requirements for testing.

Sounds like this time round the want players to actually DO some testing rather than getting early access for the sake of it...\r\rEven simply playing will probably give valuable data to Blizzard. Besides, they can't expect each people giving a unique piece o feedback or a bug report. But it doesn't take a lot of effort to report it in game, so do should definitely it if you notice anything.\r\rI wish Blizzard paid for the PTR and beta testing... like this is work and instead, we are paying them like our sub time keep counting down.

When I create any kind of app and ask people to test it, they expect to get paid like that is how software development works (for none games)!\r\rThis could be the reason why they are letting people play without active subscription, so that they can have more testers testing different aspects of the game. At least they can play for free (minus the Battle Chest they bought in the past). Sure, it's not as good as the real thing: there are less people, especially at low levels, the economy is messed up, and certain content is unavailable most of the time, but it's still a lot. Otherwise we would just see people checking up on the newly added content, even though something older might have been broken on accident.

Now that the patch is in PTR around what time can we expect it go to live? Asking for a friend.

Now that the patch is in PTR around what time can we expect it go to live? Asking for a friend.\r\rUsually (in legion) each path had a 11 weeks lenght. The last one (7.3.2) arrived 3 weeks ago (i'm not 100% sure), so it should hit live in 8 weeks from now
